— Many distributed multiple access (MAC) protocols use an exponential backoff mechanism. In that mechanism, a node picks a random backoff time uniformly in an interval that doubl...
Many real-time systems must control their CPU utilizations in order to meet end-to-end deadlines and prevent overload. Utilization control is particularly challenging in distribut...

Stochastic Petri nets (SPNs) have proven to be a powerful and enduring graphically-oriented framework for modelling and performance analysis of complex systems. This tutorial focu...
We coordinate in discrete time the interaction of two heterogeneous groups of mobile agents: a group of ground vehicles (ugvs) and a group of aerial vehicles (uavs). The ground ag...
This paper describes an adaptive noise cancellation structure suitable for the separation and equalization of signals that coupled due to the approximate placing of primary and au...
